I warrant you, Dan, you have heard of this man His name it was Robinson Crusoe. Oh Robinson Crusoe! Oh, Poor Robinson Crusoe! He went off to sea and between you and me, Old Neptune wreck'd Robinson Crusoe. But he saved from aboard an old gun and a sword And another odd matter or two, So That by dint of his thrift he just managed to shift and keep alive Robinson Crusoe Oh, Robinson Crusoe, Poor Robinson Crusoe! Whether tempest or Turk, or wild man or work, No matter to Robinson Crusoe! |

But die I this day or to-mor-row, My tes-ta-ment's al-read-y made: My bur-ial from your hands I'll bor-row But with-out splen-dor or pa-rade And when me to my grave you're bringing, Then follow afd-ter man, by man, Let me and fun'ral bells be ringing, But tink-ling glass-es be our plan. and on my tomb-stone be inscrib-ed, This man was born, lived, drank and died. And now he lies here wo im-bib-ed In all life's joy the purple tide. |
